Stephen Pollard expands on the effects of Michael Howard’s precision steering over Iraq:
Today’s shameful attempt to reposition himself on Iraq is beyond parody. Howard seems to think that he will gain favour by attempting to have it both ways on Iraq. I don’t often agree with Labour’s spin, but today they are spot on: he is indeed “plumbing new depths of opportunism”. And like most opportunism, it will end up pleasing no one. Those of us who understand that Blair and Bush are leading the fight to save Western values now view Howard with contempt. And the Stoppers too can see straight through his pathetic attempts to curry favour with them.
Read his whole post. It’s a good’un.
